Riyadh: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia voiced grave concern following the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) report and the official declaration of famine in the Gaza Strip.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned what it described as acts of genocide committed by the Israeli occupation forces against defenseless civilians.
In an official statement, the ministry affirmed that the worsening humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza is a direct result of the absence of deterrent and accountability mechanisms for the repeated crimes of the Israeli occupation.
The statement added that it will remain a stain on the conscience of the international community, particularly the permanent members of the UN Security Council, unless they act immediately to end the famine, halt the genocide, and stop the crimes committed against the brotherly Palestinian people.
